I'm still not quite clear on what kind of planet they're on. Luca said it had extremes in the climate, but the atmosphere was breathable. So far it likes like any ole Earth-like planet to me though. What's so special/bad about it?

Due to a matching of the spin rate of the planet and the solar year, one hemisphere is always in sunlight and the other always in darkness. Basically, if you stay in one place on the planet, the sun's position won't change.

I'm interested in this episode mainly for the SDF-1, and to see more of Sheryl's positive growth as a character.

Yes the SDF-1 mystery is the clear thing to look forward to in this episode, also I have high hopes for the Sheryl and Michael scenes. Wouldn't it be hilarious if Sheryl collapses again this episode and Ranka doesn't care, Minmey path full steam ahead!

Minmey's path = Ranka's death as a nice character.
When I watch SDFM I always ask myself "why doesn't a Zentradi just squash that bitch?!?", reffering to Minmay.

If I remember correctly...

That would mean one side would be really hot and the otherside would be really cold. That is evidently not the case. Also, the planet is clearly rotating on an axis in the display in episode 11, so it does have night and day cycles like Earth.

So, what's the deal?
